Wing fire

Answer 16

LANDING/ TAXI LIGHT SWITCHES: Off
PITOT HEAT SWITCH: OFF

Note: Perform side slip to keep flames away from fuel and cabin, land as soon as possible using flaps only as required for final approach and touchdown.

Question 17

Inadvertent icing encounter

Answer 17

PITOT HEAT SWITCH: ON
TURN BACK OR CHANGE ALTITUDE to find a temperature less favorable for icing
PULL CABIN HEAT CONTROL FULL OUT AND OPEN DEFROSTER OUTLETS to get maximum windshield defrost airflow
Open throttle to increase RPM and decrease ice buildup
Watch for signs of carburetor filter icing and apply carb HEAT as required
Plan a landing at the nearest airport, with extremely rapid ice buildup plan for an “off airport” landing
With ice build up of 1/4” or more on the wings leading edge, be prepared for significantly higher stall speed
Leave wing flaps retracted. With severe ice build up on the tail, flap extension causes airflow changes which may lead to loss of elevator effectiveness
Open window to scrape ice as required for visibility during landing
Preform landing slip as required for improved visibility
Use airspeed between 65-75 KIAS
Perform landing in level attitude

Pg 3-7

Alternator circuit breaker: Pull
Nonessential electrical equipment: Off
Flight: Terminate as soon as practical

Pg 3-9

Question 21

Low voltage light illuminates in flight (ammeter shows discharge)

Answer 21

Note: Low voltage light may illuminate during low RPM such as taxi, but extinguishes at higher RPM

Avionics power switch: Off
Alternator CB: Check in
Master switch: Off (both sides)
Master switch: On
Low voltage light: Check off
Avionics power switch: On
If low voltage light illuminates again:
Alternator switch: Off

Flight: Terminate as soon as practicable

Pg 3-9

Question 22

Spins

Answer 22

THROTTLE: IDLE
AILERONS: NEUTRAL
RUDDER: APPLY AND HOLD FULL RUDDER OPPOSITE THE DIRECTION OF ROTATION
JUST AFTER THE RUDDER REACHES THE STOP, BRISKLY MOVE THE CONTROL WHEEL FORWARD FAR ENOUGH TO BREAK THE STALL
HOLD THESE CONTROL INPUTS UNTIL ROTATION STOPS
AS ROTATION STOPS, NEUTRALIZE RUDDER AND MAKE A SMOOTH RECOVERY FROM THE RESULTING DIVE

Pg 3-15

Question 23

What is an indication of spark plug fouling and what can be done to correct it?

Answer 23

Roughness of the engine verified by loss of RPM by switching from both to L or R

Lean engine to recommended setting for cruise conditions for a few minutes

If roughness does not clear up, determine if a richer setting clears up the roughness, if not proceed to the nearest airport with ignition switch on both, unless extreme roughness is counteracted by switching to L or R

Pg 3-16

Question 24

What is the typical cause of sudden engine roughness?

Answer 24

Magneto failure

Switching from both to L or R will identify the faulty magneto

Adjust engine setting to get best RPM while on both, or divert to nearest airfield to affect repairs

Pg 3-16

Question 25

Low oil pressure diagnosis

Answer 25

Low oil pressure not accompanied by high oil temperature may be and result of an indicator malfunction

Loss of oil pressure accompanied by high oil temperature should be treated as a land as soon as possible. Reduce engine power to minimum required and execute a forced landing expecting eminent engine failure
